R.I.P. Duke Snider


The 'Duke Of Flatbush' passed away this weekend. Snider was a big part of Baseball's Golden Age, patrolling center field for the Brooklyn Dodgers.


Here's his 'other' nickname:

Unflattering, yes. Tasteless, maybe.

Here's another major leaguer who had an unfortunate nickname. Don't worry, this guy's loooooooong since dead.
